Title: LITERARY MODERNISM

Section: 01

Semester: Fall - 2014

Credits: 3

Description:
An upper-level course that will focus on the movement known as modernism that dominated literature from roughly 1900-1945. Modernism was inherently transnational, and many central figures were exiles, emigrants, and expatriates. Influences moved across national and linguistic boundaries, and European writers looked outside the Western tradition for new ways to think about art. Free verse took on an increasingly important role in poetry, and interior monologue became a dominant form in fiction. At the same time, large political, social, and cultural changes were taking place.

Writers studied may include Baudelaire, Wilde, Yeats, Conrad, Marinetti, Lewis, Pound, H.D., Eliot, Joyce, Woolf, Stein, Freud, W.C. Williams, Stevens, Moore, and Hughes.
